What part of space Def?

Personnaly, cant say im too thrilled about the new move, the only thing Ive heard about it so far is ''good pve, good pve and more good pve'' which I really cant be bothered about. I know its close to null but that doesnt necessarily mean good pvp. Still busy at work for another week though so Ill see how things are when im done with that..

Hmm... I just checked the eve maps cause someone asked me a few questions about profitable small gang pvp regions...

Some questions for people who aren't perma-afk:

-What happened to the Morsus Mihi / Razor etc. block in the north? Where did those players migrate to?

-After Atlas exploded, did RA simply take all that space and are there any contestors atm?

-What is CVA nowadays?

-Anyone got an idea who lives in GW these days? Still only duck-town?

-I assume the block around Delve is all ex-BoB/Kenny, is it?

-Anyone know whats the diplo status between RA and AAA is atm?

-Anyone know if "South Command" Channel still exists, who's in there and if the "POS blue only"-policy still exists? (Basicly the South always used to run a NBSI policy, however to encourage PvP they kept non-agression pacts when it came to POSes. Basicly means constant action without any danger to the major power blocks). Same policy was active for everyone involved in "North Campaign" (post-invasions) and "Delve Command".

-Basicly "North Command" always ran NRDS for the whole block which made the north into the farm and PvE fest it used to be. Anyone know if that is still active for the Goon/Raiden/Whitenoise block?


Edit: Sarenen? lol, brings back memories. Horrible ones. Please kill Sage Evo when you're around Troll-territory. PvP in the North always was "Get in, get easy kills, gtfo from 100 men defense fleet"; - how is it nowadays? Fidelas Constans should make for fun PvP.

Yeah, I'll elaborate. I really like the idea of fucking around in other people's space. I've been proposing it for a while in Molden but the only space near was GW and ER which both suck so that hasn't been an option. Now we're north I took the chance to infest the nearby region of Fade. In the spirit of space vermin I took us out there with a carrier loaded up with spare ships, useful mods, drones etc and a cloak. We went out with four drakes, a cane, a salvaging destroyer and a prober and found a nice empty corner of exceptionally high truesec to bear it. For the next hour or two we ran sanctums with the carrier, two 8/10 DED sites Chris probed down and did a lot of salvaging. The carrier's corporation hangar filled with loot, salvage and faction mods while we scored a lot of bounties but sadly got no escalations. However, that wasn't why we went down there.

The locals were 20j deep into friendly null and acted like it. Nou popped a nemesis and a buzzard which lit cynos on poses, something you'd never see in Odde where it's actually risky to be in space. We decided a lesson in 720 artycane might help them out. They also had a cane cruising around which was stupid enough to go for me with no scouting and their +2 local was dwarfed by our +4 so he was promptly abandoned by his friends and cut down. However some time later a domi which had been aimlessly milling around idled on a gate near us and I warped to it at 0 to jump and cut off the escape, having one minute old intel that the far side was clear. The gamble didn't pay off, the domi aggressed and neuted with a mael, geddon, baddon, nemesis, drake, vaga, myrm on the other side. -1 Drake and t1 fit probe for me. But if they wanted to bring it it was game on.

Carrier decloaked and spat out a new drake and a shitfit probing probe with a scram and microwarpdrive taken from salvaging loot. Carrier was logged off, links logged on, it was game time. We executed a classic nano jump through and burn off into their gatecamp and were rewarded by total chaos on their side. Chris locked their nemesis in a death embrace as drones swarmed over the pair of them and he quickly dropped leaving Chris warping out in structure. Their vagabond attempted pursuit and I called an overheat on him as he burned in to point us, began to turn as he realised what he'd just done and fell as Tofu anticipated his flight and followed him with the point. Their battleships were doing some serious ranged damage and I had to warp out, leaving the field in Tofu's competent hands. Before I landed again a minute later Tritan had lost his drake, apparently by attempting to heat his invulns he turned them off and didn't notice but I remember doing stupider things when I was new to PvP. However their drake had been dropped in reply and we were formed up into a proper nano array with four battlecruisers matching their four battleships and one battlecruiser volley for volley.
Our only remaining tackle risk was the 25k neuts of the domi so we focused on kiting those while the domi charged at us ahead of his friends. Chris promtply tackled the domi with his hero probe and they lost all momentum, the domi a sitting duck for target practice. Unfortunately by this point both Nou and Motbob had burned their guns out and Tofu and I were facing off against four ships alone. We dropped the myrm but my shields were in 4% while Tofu was in armour so we warped out to regroup. Local rang with the sound of "run bitches" but when we landed back on the field 90 seconds later with 2 limping ships and 2 drone dps only ships they were gone, leaving their dead unlooted and local ours.

We then spent about 20 minutes salvaging and looting as we had so much loot from the field that we had to keep dropping more off in the carrier. And that is why I have brought us north.

I'm trying to get into this, just started an Amarr guy, 'bout 5 days in now, but I'm really unsure what to do, I'm training skills and doing the newbiemissions but I'm really unsure about how racepicks, bloodline picks and academypicks affect me, and that sort of things always make me jittery. Could anyone fill me in? All i find while googling is people saying that it changed in 2008 with no mention of what it changed TO.

Just now just doing the newbiemissions and sporadically mining Veldspar every time i die in HoN/catch a break in Element TD, playing with you guys might sound like a blast, but what does it entail?
